Kara Goucher is a long-distance runner, Olympian, author, and mother. Her journey has taught her the power of self-belief paired with the support of others. In her new book, "The Longest Race," and through her advocacy for women's rights, she encourages us all to rise above doubt and pressure to become our most authentic selves. In part one of this incredible conversation, Kara shares her experiences in life and sport with me and my co-host Travis Macy. Kara has represented the USA at the Beijing and London Olympics and finished third at the Boston Marathon.
